Know Any Amazing Kids Who Volunteer?

The Build-A-Bear Workshop Huggable Heroes program encourages and empowers kids to be young leaders and honors them for their dedication and accomplishments. The program is launching its seventh year of recognizing young leaders who are actively doing big and small things to make a difference in their local communities or around the world. If you know any child between the ages of 8-18 that is involved in community service, have them apply for one of the greatest award programs available. Sondra was a winner in 2007 and got to travel to the World Bearquarters in St. Louis, appear as “Miss August” in the Build-A-Bear calendar and get a college scholarship. (Which she is using this year!) Go to the website at http://www.buildabear.com under “Huggable Heroes”.
